निस्संशयम् कार्यम् अवेक्षितव्यम् क्रिया विशेषो अपि अनुवर्तितव्यः | न तु प्रवृद्धस्य दुरासदस्य कुमार वीर्यस्य फलम् च चिन्त्यम् || ४-३०-२०

Translation
"Doubtless accomplishment of the task is to be held in view, even oh, boy, the factors that contribute to its accomplishment, like enthusiasm, helpmates etc., are to be followed through, and not only these aspects but we also have to observe the fruition of task when that task is becoming unwieldy, unattainable and formidable, along with the lapse of time and lapsing of help." Thus Rama said to Lakshmana. [4-30-20]
